[Elecraft] K3 & microKeyer2

[Jim McDonald]

Bill,

I can answer the second question.  The shell of the PR6 connector is not
filled, and it is very easy to open and add additional cables.  I have a
pair of RG-174/U cables for FSK and PTT going into it with no issues which
go to my HB (http://www.aa5au.com/rttyinterface.html ) interface.

Hi

I have a K3 running PSK (AFSK) and RTTY via Winwarbler which is part ot the
DXLab suite of programmes. I installed an old Sound Blaster sound card in my
PC.

I still own a microKeyer2 which I used to use with my Pro3.

I have a two part question to help me decide whether or not to invest in
microKeyer2 cables.

1.  Are there advantage using the microHam interface rather than the built
in interface?

2.  I have a PR6 preamp. I believe that the D connector that comes as part
of the cabling is filled with material to protect it. If that is the case
then what do I do with the white wire?

I did see reference to question 2 in another thread but I couldn't
understand the answer. I'm a black box operator so keep it simple please.
